Prayers!

I've decided to start this thread. We can archive it later to have it be ongoing through this journey...

Dear God,

We are so grateful of the many blessings You have given us. We pray for the children that You are about to bless us with. We pray that You will guide their steps and give them a sense of peace and comfort knowing that they will be taken to another family that loves them dearly. We pray that You will heal their wounded or grieving hearts. If their parents are still alive we pray that they can know that they have made a wise decision for their children. We pray that joy fills the hearts of these children and any of their family members in Ethiopia. We pray for the agency AAI that they will be able to continue to have the means, support, finances and staff to continue to take care of their children at LAYLA HOUSE, AHOPE and all of their centers. Give the agency Godly wisdom in placing all the children with the families You have ordained. And God we pray for our children currently in our home that they will rejoice and bond with their brother and sister (or brother and brother)...We thank you Lord that you do place the scattered children into their homes ....We pray that more families will come forward to adopt...and mostly we pray that in time there will be no more suffering , disease or hunger so that in the future this world can be a place where children would never have to say goodbye or grieve the loss of their parents..amen..
